readx;?“ Clang!!! ”

After a gong sounded, I saw that on the stage in the middle of the Fan Tower, an elegant middle-aged man wearing thick black clothes and black shoes came to the stage. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info "pop pop ......", as soon as this person appeared, in the Fan Building, which was already full of friends, there was immediately applause.

"Huo Si, what are you talking about today?"

"Let's make a three!"

"Yo, if you want me to say, come to a section of the Yang family generals, I don't know when the imperial court will start a war with the Khitan again, it is estimated that the knives of those border troops are rusty, right?"

"If you want to start a war, you're looking for Jiaozhi, you don't even know the Jiaozhi people, and your nose is pulled to the sky......"

Huo Si held a fan in his hand, patted the ruler, and said with a smile: "Today, I won't talk about three points, and I won't talk about the Yang general, I want to talk about what happened a few days ago......"

"Isn't it a matter of the Jinluan Palace?"

Everyone speculated, and Huo Si waited for them to guess a lot, and then patted the ruler. This ruler is a bit like the startling wood in the yamen, also called "awakening wood", it is a rectangular piece of hardwood, with horns and edges, taking the meaning of "rules", and has the effect of solemn law, strong official authority, and deterring the person being tried. As early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, "Jingtangmu" began to be used. "Chinese and Vietnamese" contains: "Shocking wood, six inches long, five inches wide, two inches thick and eight." Tian Tangwei is also ...... "In the previous dynasty, this shocking wood was only used for the official office, and there was no pattern, but for convenience, the top surface of it was made into an arc. Later, for the sake of beauty, animal patterns were carved on the shocking wood, including dragons, tigers, and lions.

At this time, the use of the stunning wood, due to the different users, the name is also different. The name used by the emperor was "Zhenshan River" to show supreme authority; The name used by the queen is "Fengxia", which is also very noble; The prime minister used the name "Zuo Chaogang", which means to assist and help the imperial court to stabilize the country; The marshal general used it was called "Frightened Tiger Courage"; Only the small wooden block in the hands of ordinary officials is called "shocking wood", which is commonly used by "seven-grade sesame officials" in dramas or films. Other industries also have similar items such as "Shocking Wood": monks use "waking wood", storytellers hold "stop words", and so on......

Why didn't Lu Chengqi use "Zhenshan River"? This is also related to the officialdom culture of Dashun. Dashun is different from the previous dynasty, and many times it is the emperor's word. Dashun attaches great importance to civil officials and wants to "rule the world together" with scholars. Of course, this is just talk, and whoever takes it seriously will definitely be unlucky. But Dashun was indeed not as oppressive as the previous dynasty, and the literati also had many opportunities to display their ambitions. Moreover, the emperor's will was first drafted by the Zhongshu Sheren, and it also needed to go through the second court (the military Privy Council, the political Zhongshu Province, and the cabinet after the abolition of the three provinces), which was responsible for reviewing the matter, and if the decree was improper, it would definitely be rejected. Therefore, after Lu Chengqi touched the wall a few times, he could only obediently pass the court meeting and then draft the holy decree.

If you don't have any opinion on the recording of pornography, you will sign your name to indicate that the review has passed, which is called "book reading". If the matter is not "read" and the first assistant of the cabinet signs first, it is a "violation". Obviously, the fact that the Zhongshu Sheren does not "write books" and does not "read books" in the course of things constitutes a legitimate refutation of the emperor's holy decree: "Those who combine everything with the scriptures to read in the matter and the scholars who do the books in the middle of the book will be recorded and recorded as soon as the book is completed. If it is not feasible, it is performed without writing, which is called refutation. ”

It can be seen that even the emperor does not do whatever he wants. Of course, Lu Chengqi is very smart, and if he replaces the people in the middle and middle schools with his own people, then there will be no problem. This "own person" is not a person without virtue and talent, but Lu Chengqi believes that he is an official with a smart mind, knows how to turn, and is upright after careful investigation. Liu Geng is one of them, and Kong Lin is the second.

Because of this environment, the emperor does not need to use "Zhenshan River" to calm the scene. If you want to "Zhenshan River", it proves that this emperor is too weak in control, and even his courtiers do not obey him. Therefore, this "Zhenshan River" was thrown by Lu Chengqi in the imperial study and never taken out.

Huo Si's ruler is definitely not as precious as Lu Chengqi's "Zhenshan River", you must know that this "Zhenshan River" is carved from golden silk nanmu, Huo Si's ruler is probably camphor wood, which is very common. Fortunately, Dashun's political environment is relaxed, otherwise, just the crime of using the shocking wood is enough for you.

"Smack!!

After the ruler was photographed, the inside of the Fan Building immediately quieted down. Huo Si cleared his throat and said, "It is said that on the day of the court meeting, the saint was on a whim and shot in the South Imperial Garden with the envoys of various countries. Send the forbidden army into the city, ho, good fellow. I saw the banner hunting in front of the South Imperial Garden, the spears were like a forest, the bows and crossbows were like frost, the iron and silver armor, the drums were like thunder, stepping through the clouds, and the envoys of the vassal country were so frightened that they sat upright and did not dare to speak. The saint said with a smile: 'There is a way when the heavens are angry, overturning the silver sea and scattering the beads and foils. Six strange flowers are rolling, flattening the hills and ravines in the mountains. The tiger is crazy, Su Lin is rampant, and the pearl rope is broken. The jade dragon fought fiercely, and the scales and armor fell all over the sky. Whoever reads Wanli Guanshan, the husband stiffens, and the ribbon touches the flag feet. Seying Ge spear, light shaking sword halberd, murderous curtain. Pihu is heroic, partial and heroic, and talks about military strategy. You have to get drunk and see the blue sky. Envoys, look at my Han family's son, how is the majestic style? ’”

"Good !!"

At that time, there was no lack of blood, and when they heard that the forbidden army was so brave, they also shouted, and they all "donated generously" and threw some reward money into the gong. As soon as Huo Si saw it, he was energetic: "But he said that the envoy who wrote the vassal kingdom was only willing to make promises, and he didn't mean it, and the saint saw it funny, so he ordered the forbidden army to drill the formation." ”

At this time, someone at the bottom asked: "Huo Si, this drill formation has been learned by these barbarians, isn't it a loss for my Han people?" ”

Huo Si shook his head and said: "My Han people have many battle formations, including the Nine Palaces Bagua Array, the Square Array, the Circle Array, the Mu Array, the Chong Array, the Fu Zhi Array, the Wheel Array, the Goose Formation, as well as the Mandarin Duck Array, the Crouching Tiger Array, the Pingrong Wanquan Array, the One-Word Long Snake Array, the Erlong Water Array, the Heaven and Earth Sancai Array, the Four Gate Doudi Array, the Five Tigers and Sheep Array, the Liuding Liujia Array, the Seven-Star Beidou Array, the Eight Gates Golden Lock Array, the Nine-Character Serial Array, and the Ten Ambush Array...... With so many of them, how can these be understood by barbarians? ”

In fact, Huo Si is just talking on paper, at this time, there are only eight kinds of battle formations, also known as the eight formations of this dynasty, that is, the phalanx, the circle array, the Mu array, the rushing phalanx, the Fuzhi array, the wheel array, and the goose-shaped array. Each formation was formed with a total of 14,000 horsemen and infantry troops. Among them, the infantry army was organized into 200 teams, each team of 50 people, totaling 10,000 people; There were 80 teams of horses, 50 people in each team, and 4,000 people in total. Each type of formation is divided into seven armies, such as the Tang Dynasty army, the middle army, the left and right Yu Hou, the left and right, and the front and rear. Every ten people in each array are in a row, all facing each other, carrying each other back. One pawn occupies two steps, and one horse is two steps wide.

In essence, these eight formations have all become a four-sided defensive formation. In other words, the main forces of each formation still did not depart from the mode of pure defense, and they did not inherit the offensive spirit of the army at the time of the founding of the country. This is also related to the threat faced at this time, because Dashun is different from the previous dynasty, lacking good horses, lacking cavalry, and facing strong mobility of the northern nomads, so the two wings and the flank and rear directions are always threatened, the square array and other formations facing the defense on all sides are indeed defensive cavalry outflanking, and the ancient eight formations are set up as geese, cones and other formations with the main force, which is an offensive formation facing a certain direction, and the defense of the flanks is greatly weakened. In the absence of sufficient cavalry, it seems impossible to use the infantry formation to attack the highly mobile cavalry, because when the battle situation is unfavorable, the cavalry can leave the battle at any time, or attack the flank and rear direction in a roundabout way, so it is still appropriate to adopt a phalanx or circular formation to defend the cavalry in the field.

It's just that these formations are too complicated, and the drill is not easy, and the forbidden army has long been abandoned. Even if there were reservations in the forbidden army, it was only a mere formality, bluffing those foreign envoys. The real weapons of the forbidden army are the firearms of the forbidden army. Huo Si doesn't understand the mystery of this, but the storyteller will inevitably add oil and vinegar, and it is understandable to say it wildly. (To be continued.) )
